Housing for Summer School

The application for Summer School housing is available online.

Housing is available for 5 Week I, 5 Week II, 6 Week II, 8 Week, and the 10 Week Combo (5 Week I & 5 Week II). No housing is available for any other terms.

A late housing fee of $50 will be charged to applications not received by the following deadlines: April 19 for the 5-Week I, 8-Week, and 10-Week Combo terms; May 27 for the 5-Week II and 6-Week II terms.

Please note that due to time constraints it is difficult for the Housing Office to notify residents of their room assignments and/or roommates (if applicable) prior to their arrival date. Every effort will be made to notify residents, but it may not be possible.

Housing for all students registered in a summer school class will be in the Residence Halls. Men and women will be housed on alternate floors, by suites within the same hall or in separate residence halls, depending on space provided.

It is suggested all students list the name of a roommate on the housing form as most available housing will be in double rooms. If you list a single as your preference, you will be considered for a single room, but if none is available, you will be assigned to a double. Every attempt will be made to assign you with your preferred roommate. Triple rooms will be used for those without a preferred roommate. Room and roommate preferences will be considered ONLY if paperwork and payment are received by the stated deadline. After these dates, rooms will be assigned on a first come, first served basis.

Student residence hall/room assignment will be based on the length of time the student will be on campus. If you are attending the 5-Week I Term or the 8-Week Term and are remaining on campus to work for part of the summer, every attempt will be made to assign you to a residence hall that will be open for the summer. In addition to the Summer School Application, you must complete and return the Research, Worker, Intern application to the Housing Office to be considered for this arrangement. It is important to keep this in mind as you select a preferred roommate, as the roommate must be remaining for all or most of the same time period. If you later decide to remain for another term or to obtain employment on campus, you may have to move to another location.

No storage is available between the end of the spring term and the beginning of summer term housing or from the end of summer term housing to the beginning of the fall term.

All students attending a summer term are required to be on a meal plan.

The following is the schedule for arrival and departure:

You may pick up your mail during Summer School at the post office. Your mailing address will be:

Your name, Box 1838, 28 Westhampton Way, University of Richmond, VA 23173

If you need to remain on campus after summer housing ends, you may do so as long as you are working on campus for at least 20 hours per week, participating in an internship either on or off campus, or you have an international address and need to remain to the beginning of the fall term. You MUST complete a separate housing application (Extend Stay Application which is a part of the Research, Worker, Intern Application) to be able to remain past the stated dates of the term. The application is available in the Office of Undergraduate Student Housing in Whitehurst, Room 103, or may be printed from the Housing web site.

The application for extended housing must be submitted directly to the Housing Office.

It is imperative that you submit this application to the Housing Office when you submit your Summer Housing Application to Student Accounts. Do not turn it in to Student Accounts with your Summer Housing Application.
